Y INTRODUCTION 
ye For over a third of a century, Mr. Coon has pioneered 
vp the field of aquatic biology, specializing in the development 
Y of better feeding and breeding grounds for migratory 
WY waterfowl, fish, muskrats and other game. 
From a little backyard biological supply business, he 
has grown to be the world’s largest dealer in natural foods 
for wild game. Shipments are sent to all parts of the 
world, serving more than 25,000 customers. 
Continuous travel over remote areas in all parts of this 
continent enables Mr. Coon, with his knowledge of Nature 
and the habits of her creatures, to give to his patrons 
(without cost or obligation) through mail personal help 
with their game food problems. 
Both Mr, Coon and his staff of helpers are constantly 
striving to extend useful service and quality planting 
materials to their patrons.

When Wild Ducks stop on your 
waters and find little or no food, 
they go on their way in search of 
better feeding grounds, but if they 
find plenty of their natural foods 
growing there, you can’t keep them 
away. 
To have the best of Hunting or Fishing all that is 
necessary is to start a growth of their favorite foods. 
Provide cover and give them a chance, they will 
do the rest. Soon you will have game or fish in 
abundance. 
GOOD PLANTING MATERIALS IMPORTANT 
Aquatic seeds, tubers and plants are of a perish- 
able nature and must be carefully handled by expe- 
rienced people. Poor materials are a waste of time 
and money, no matter how in- 
expensive they may be. 
GROWN TO SUIT YOUR CLIMATE 
Our planting materials are grown on 
properties from the far north to the 
extreme south to meet all conditions 
and climates, These seeds, tubers and 
plants are produced on twelve different 
properties located in various parts of 
the United States.
